"""As historical, emerging, and not-yet-imagined health care concerns challenge our nation and world, nurses will continue to lead the efforts to accompany the most vulnerable in their times of uncertainty and need. This book is an excellent tool to guide Advance Practice Registered Nurses and their collaborators in health care education into conversations about ethical action within the complex, challenges of their work."" -Daniel McGinty, Ed.D.Dundon-Berchtold Institute for Moral Formation & Applied EthicsUniversity of Portland ""I am decidedly impressed by Drs. Vermeesch, Cox, Roberts, and Giske's new book, Ethical Case Studies for Advance Practice Nurses. I wish this workbook would've been available for preparation for practice when I was a student in my own FNP/DNP program as many of these case studies feel as if they were lifted from my own encounters. I plan on using this text with students I precept in my own practice in the future. What a wonderful way to see Advance Practice Nursing as neither black/white/absolute but instead as a myriad of colors in which to hone principled and just care as our Code of Nursing intends."" -Laurel Hallock-Koppelman, DNP, FNP-C, APRNAssistant Professor, School of Medicine, Oregon Health and Science University ""Ethical Case Studies for Advanced Practice Nurses gracefully guides readers through the sorts of ethically complex cases that keep us all up at night. Infused with wisdom and clarity, this textbook is a must-read for APRNs of all practice environments and levels of experience. As a Clinical Ethicist I was deeply impressed - although not surprised, as it is authored by four powerhouses in the field - by how much I learned within the pages of this book."" -Kayla Tabari-House, RN, MBE, HEC-CClinical Ethicist, Providence St. Joseph Health ""Teaching ethics to graduate nursing students can be challenging because so many students enter into discussions with preconceived notions about how ethics are relegated to legal or philosophical debates or their only exposure to ethics is through cut and dry lectures. The beauty of this text is it provides the reader with real-world, common-sense examples of the types of ethical challenges often faced by those who practice in advanced practice roles. The authors masterfully created cases grounded in reality that bring the ethical concepts of the ANA Code alive in ways that allow for nuanced conversation and engaged learning. Perfect for flipped classrooms and other student participative methodologies, this text would be easy to incorporate into any advanced practice clinical course designed for students who will work in community-based settings."" -Dawn Garzon PhD, CPNP-PC, PMHS, FAANP, FAANBehavioral Health Nurse PractitionerSt. Louis Children's Hospital ""An excellent resource for both new and experienced practitioners. The case studies in this book help nurses recognize that some everyday clinical encounters represent ethical dilemmas that can leave the practitioner feeling uncomfortable. The book presents a wide range of situations that any practitioner may encounter and offers a framework for systematically reviewing the problem and developing viable solutions."" -Mallie Kozy"
